Spectators: 151 (Terracing: 114, Seating: 34, VIP seats: 3) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Erling Halland kicked off to start the match. Hudson Coelho's late challenge caught a Joinville United - FSCMZ's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Hudson Coelho helped the player get up and apologised. Erling Halland blasted a shot towards the goal in the 7th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Cauan Arce having to make a save. In the 9th minute, Gilmar Tinoco hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Cauan Arce came out of the goal in the 10th minute to try and stop a shot by Mochila FC's Erling Halland. But to his dismay, Erling Halland quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-1. Cauan Arce showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Sílvio Laureano, who was totally free with the ball in the 14th minute. If João Pedro Rodrigues had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 27th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Cauan Arce took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Erling Halland, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. When the match clock showed 32 minutes, the score became 0-3 when Erling Halland sped through Joinville United - FSCMZ's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Cauan Arce. 37 minutes in the game Serafim Paraíba did a throw-in, and the ball was quickly in game thanks to Fred de Queirós. Mochila FC's Sílvio Laureano got a good chance for a goal in the 40th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After 43rd play minutes Erling Halland shot 0-4, a short shot which went by Cauan Arce and just under the crossbar into goal. The crowd was extremely unhappy with the home team's performance in the first half. They were losing 0-4.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Nelson Guimarães to make the kick off. In the 52nd minute, Erling Halland left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Mochila FC fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 0-5. Erling Halland did some fancy footwork in front of goal and succeeded to deceive the defenders so he could slam the ball in 0-6 to the left of a surprised Cauan Arce 54 minutes into the match. Mochila FC's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Sidnei Quintal in the 65th minute. 76 minutes into the match, Sidney Vander dribbled the ball past the defender and swiftly kicked the ball to the left of Cauan Arce, 0-7. Cauan Arce stood somewhat misplaced when Erling Halland came free in front of goal and shot 0-8 to the left of him in the 85 minute. Cauan Arce made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Erling Halland in the 94th minute of play. When the final whistle sounded Mochila FC left the ground with the victory after a much better performance than Joinville United - FSCMZ.
